How To Tie Shoelaces

HOT DAMN, THERE'S SOMETHING TO BE SAID FOR REINVENTING THE WHEEL AFTER ALL.

Or, in the instance of tying shoelaces, perhaps we should make a point to add 'figuratively.'

Check out these alternatives to the same old boring way we've been tying shoes since mom taught us on bended knee. There's 11 more examples over at MailDumper, a far cry from the two trillion ways to feed lace through six pairs eyelets, according to Ian's Shoelace Site! Ian, dude, get a life!

We do think attempting new tying methods is a perfect pastime for road trips, short prison stints and even school suspensions. Also highly recommend it for super ambitious parents trying to tweak a few extra SAT scores out of their offspring. Just, ahem, don't work yourself into a knot while trying!
